Yay! So my 100 day project is completed (see here for my mixed media postcards). I was glad to see it go in the end if I am completely honest. I was finding it hard for the final 10 days or so to come up with something new or to find time to create and post. I'm not sure if it was the project itself or my personal circumstances that were blocking me - but the main thing is I persevered and continued to create regardless.

The season of colour at Get Messy is now over and I really enjoyed it (see below for my pages for this season). The tutorials for this season were amazing as was the inspiration from the creative team and other members. I found that my art was quite superficial for it though - again I don't know if this was because of my personal circumstances (I was going through a bit of a hard time throughout the whole season really) or whether I just needed to create art for the sake of it, without it having to be meaningful or deep.

I've been inspired recently by some books that I treated myself too in the Amazon Prime sale - I got Animalium and Botanicum (both from the Welcome to the Museum series) and they are AMAZING! The illustrations are just gorgeous and they are a good read too. They're aimed at children around the age of 10-12 but they are super gorgeous and huge (about 14x10 inches I think!). I want the entire series now. Expect a lot of my art to have illustrations of plants for the next few weeks!

Last bit of news - I'm now a member of the creative team for Mrs Brimbles - so expect some posts soon about her Patreon classes and some gorgeous collage sheets that she has made.
